Meanwhile, on Android, the #2 and #3 sources of web traffic do not respect browser choice. Google's Search App and Facebook's various apps for Android undermine these choices in slightly different ways.

DonHopkins : NeWS differs from the current technology stack in that it was all coherently designed at once by James Gosling and David Rosenthal, by taking several steps back and thinking deeply about all the different problems it was trying to solve together. That’s mapping applications to the specific architectural choices.

Certain tools are designed for certain metrics with certain assumptions that produce certain results. In contrast, tools like DebugBear and WebPageTest use more realistic throttling that accurately reflects network round trips on a higher-latency connection. Lighthouse results. Real usage data would be better, of course.

Because we are dealing with network protocols here, we will mainly look at network aspects, of which two are most important: latency and bandwidth. Latency can be roughly defined as the time it takes to send a packet from point A (say, the client) to point B (the server). Two-way latency is often called round-trip time (RTT).

Our metrics at Google show a conflicted picture (which I’m working to get to clarity on). Contended, over-subscribed cells can make “fast” networks brutally slow, transport variance can make TCP much less efficient , and the bursty nature of web traffic works against us. 75% of of connections occur on either 2G or 3G.
